No. That is "old school". Today's Podiatry involves threats from billing/coding issues. Paid court experts that will now state in a court of law about your business practices. "Experts" get a hefty fee for (this) "service". The malpractice companies now sell you "errors and omissions" policies. Be careful. This may not be considered an "error' or "omission" (in disjunctive terms).

What a funny, surreal question. Is the question even serious? This has been going on for decades.
